Administration, DHS.
ACTION: 60-Day notice.
AGENCY:

The Transportation Security
Administration (TSA) invites public
comment on one currently approved
Information Collection Request (ICR),
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) control number 1652–0055,
abstracted below that we will submit to
OMB for an extension in compliance
with the Paperwork Reduction Act
(PRA). On May 26, 2021, OMB approved
TSA’s request for an emergency revision
of this collection to address the ongoing
cybersecurity threat to pipeline systems
and associated infrastructure. TSA is
now seeking to renew the collection as
it expires on November 30, 2021. The
ICR describes the nature of the
information collection and its expected
burden. Specifically, the collection
involves the submission of data
concerning pipeline security incidents,
appointment of cybersecurity
coordinators, and coordinators’ contact
information.

SUMMARY:

Send your comments by August
30, 2021.
ADDRESSES: Comments may be emailed

Comments Invited
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501
et seq.), an agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a valid OMB control
number. The ICR documentation will be
available at http://www.reginfo.gov
upon its submission to OMB. Therefore,
in preparation for OMB review and
approval of the following information
collection, TSA is soliciting comments
to—
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed
information requirement is necessary for
the proper performance of the functions
of the agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including using
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
Information Collection Requirement
OMB Control Number 1652–0055;
Pipeline Operator Security Information.
In addition to TSA’s broad
responsibility and authority for
‘‘security in all modes of transportation
. . . including security responsibilities
. . . over modes of transportation [,]’’
see 49 U.S.C. 114, TSA is required to
issue recommendations for pipeline
security measures and conduct
inspections to assess implementation of
the recommendations. See sec. 1557 of
the Implementing Recommendations of
the 9/11 Commission Act of 2007,
Public Law 110–53 (August 3, 2007).
Consistent with these requirements,
TSA produced Pipeline Security
Guidelines in December 2010 and 2011,
with an update published in April 2021.
As the lead Federal agency for
pipeline security and consistent with its
statutory authorities, TSA needs to be
notified of all (1) incidents that may
indicate a deliberate attempt to disrupt
pipeline operations and (2) activities
that could be precursors to such an
attempt. The Pipeline Security
Guidelines encourage pipeline operators
to notify the Transportation Security
Operations Center (TSOC) via phone or
email as soon as possible if any of the
following incidents occurs or if there is
other reason to believe that a terrorist
incident may be planned or may have
occurred:

• Explosions or fires of a suspicious
nature affecting pipeline systems,
facilities, or assets.
• Actual or suspected attacks on
pipeline systems, facilities, or assets.
• Bomb threats or weapons of mass
destruction threats to pipeline systems,
facilities, or assets.
• Theft of pipeline company vehicles,
uniforms, or employee credentials.
• Suspicious persons or vehicles
around pipeline systems, facilities,
assets, or right-of-way.
• Suspicious photography or possible
surveillance of pipeline systems,
facilities, or assets.
• Suspicious phone calls from people
asking about the vulnerabilities or
security practices of a pipeline system,
facility, or asset operation.
• Suspicious individuals applying for
security-sensitive positions in the
pipeline company.
• Theft or loss of Sensitive Security
Information (SSI) (detailed pipeline
maps, security plans, etc.).
When voluntarily contacting the
TSOC, the Guidelines request pipeline
operators to provide as much of the
following information as possible:
• Name and contact information
(email address, telephone number).
• The time and location of the
incident, as specifically as possible.
• A description of the incident or
activity involved.
• Who has been notified and what
actions have been taken.
• The names and/or descriptions of
persons involved or suspicious parties
and license plates as appropriate.
On May 26, 2021, OMB approved
TSA’s request for an emergency revision
of this information collection. See ICR
Reference Number: 202105–1652–002.
The revision was required as a result of
the recent ransomware attack on one of
the Nation’s top pipeline supplies and
other emerging threat information. TSA
issued a Security Directive (SD) with
requirements for TSA-specified critical
pipeline owner/operators of hazardous
liquid and natural gas pipelines and
liquefied natural gas facilities. The SD
included two new information
collections. TSA now requires all
owner/operators subject to the SD’s
requirements to report cybersecurity
incidents or potential cybersecurity
incidents on their information and
operational technology systems to the
Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security
Agency (CISA) within 12 hours of
discovery using the CISA Reporting
System. In addition, the SD requires
critical pipeline owner/operators to
appoint cybersecurity coordinators and
to provide contact information for the
coordinators to TSA. To ensure that

34778

Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 123 / Wednesday, June 30, 2021 / Notices

information reported pursuant to the SD
is identifiable within the system, TSA
requires these owners/operators to
indicate that they are providing the
information pursuant to the SD. TSA is
now seeking renewal of this revised
information collection for the maximum
three-year approval period.
Using the CISA reporting system, TSA
expects the mandatory reporting of
pipeline cybersecurity incidents to CISA
will occur 20 times per year for each
pipeline owner/operator, and it will
take approximately 2 hours to gather the
appropriate information to submit each
incident report. The potential burden to
the public for this task is 100 × 20 × 2
hours = 4,000 hours.
TSA estimates that approximately 100
pipeline owner/operators will report
their cybersecurity manager and
alternate point of contact information. It
will take the pipeline owner/operator
approximately 30 minutes (0.50 hour) to
do so, and the potential burden for this
task is 100 × 0.50 hour = 50 hours.
For non-cybersecurity pipeline
incidents, TSA expects voluntary
reporting of pipeline security incidents
will occur on an irregular basis. TSA
estimates that approximately 32
incidents will be reported annually,
requiring a maximum of 30 minutes
(0.50 hour) to collect, review, and
submit event information. The potential
burden to the public for this task is
estimated to be 16 hours. Therefore, the
total hour burden to the public for this
information collection request is
estimated to be 4,000 hours + 50 hours
+ 16 hours = 4,066 hours annually.

Summary of Form HUD–92564–CN
Comments and HUD Responses:
Comment: A commenter expressed
concern that a section of a disclosure
statement on the form that the qualified
home inspector ‘‘will . . . estimate the
remaining useful life of the major
systems, equipment, structure and
finishes’’ does not accurately state the
scope of a home inspection and should
be replaced with ‘‘will. . .report
systems and components that appear to
be near the end of their service lives’’.
HUD Response: HUD clarified the
statement by incorporating the
recommended replacement language.
Comment: A commenter encouraged
HUD to implement efforts to expand
portals for delivering form HUD–92564–
CN: For Your Protection: Get a Home
Inspection message as widely as
possible, by all existing and evolving
methods, to as many prospective
homebuyers as possible, and to
prospective buyers likely to enter the
home buying market in the foreseeable
future.
HUD Response: HUD continues to
utilize electronic and digital methods as
well as paper versions to disseminate
the English and Spanish versions of
form HUD 92564–CN, For Your
Protection: Get a Home Inspection to
prospective home buyers through real
estate brokers and any conceivable
means. The form is also available in
English and Spanish on HUD website
and is accessible by real estate brokers,
mortgage originators and prospective
homebuyers. There is no cost associated
with accessing the form and the website
is available 24 hours a day, 7 days per
week. Additionally, HUD has
incorporated Form HUD–92564–CN, For
Your Protection: Get a Home Inspection
into its origination and processing
policy described in the Single Family
Housing Policy Handbook 4000.1 and
requires Mortgagees to provide the form
to prospective homebuyers at first
contact, be it for pre-qualification, preapproval, or initial application.
